BAR IN CENTRAL BIRMINGHAM

The brief for this project was to clad the bar front, pillars and fireplace of a busy nightclub in Birmingham.

The client was looking for a colour that was in keeping with the club franchise that also had some depth and tone. Through visiting our showroom, they chose an existing walnut effect, digitally altered to give it a deep purple twist.

Through Photoshop we book matched this effect so it flowed effortlessly from panel to panel, whilst also putting careful thought into the panel placement to make the joins look minimal. Once confirmed, the manufacture time of this project was a little less than 3 weeks, which we managed to complete with time to spare.

ILLUMINATED TIME PIECE

This Project was to produce the surface for an illuminated time piece for designer Ben Rousseau.

The project involved creating three distinctive diameters that were sandblasted to Bens specification to allow the surface to illuminate accordingly.

Diameter one and two were from our antique Mirror range, one in our Petelia antique mirror and one in our Cagliari antique mirror. Both surfaces offered a great level of reflection while also looking dynamic and textured.

The third diameter was made using our selvered print technique, using a silvered black shagreen pattern. Putting this effect on first and sandblasting the back afterwards provided the light areas with a fantastic skate skin texture, giving the clock a completely new dimension.

If any of the work in this project is of interest, please feel free to get in touch with Ben Rousseau to help construct beautiful interiors that are intelligently lit, info@rousseau.co.uk
